Which is an example of internal conflict? when kevin and katie go to the dance, who should show up but thomas, the prom king, who hangs around and keeps cutting in. kevin asks katie to go with him to a dance, but she refuses, saying she would rather go with adam. kevin is going to a dance with katie, but on the way to her house he gets a flat tire. kevin wants to take katie to a dance, but his best friend jason has already told lauren and ashley that he and kevin would take them.

I believe it's 4 because Kevin isn't being physically hurt, but more emotionally by the girl he wanted to ask already being taken.

Well, I know that internal conflict is a conflict with one's self so I think it would be the last one because he is thinking about taking Katie to the dance but the conflict is that Jason already arranged a date making him think if he should go with Katie or stick with Lauren and Ashley. I think I made that confusing but tell me if it helps!

Refute it, showing why it is mistaken—an apparent but not real problem; acknowledge its validity or plausibility, but suggest why on balance it's relatively less important or less likely than what you propose, and thus doesn't overturn it; concede its force and complicate your idea accordingly—restate your thesis in a more exact, qualified, or nuanced way that takes account of the objection, or start a new section in which you consider your topic in light of it. this will work if the counterargument concerns only an aspect of your argument; if it undermines your whole case, you need a new thesis.
